▆ Single-cycle multiplication
▆ Integrated Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC)
▆ 24-bit SysTick timer
The Cortex®-M0+ processor is a very low gate count, highly energy efficient processor that is intended for microcontroller and deeply embedded applications that require an area optimized, low-power processor. The processor is based on the ARMv6-M architecture and supports Thumb® instruction sets; single-cycle I/O port; hardware multiplier and low latency interrupt respond time.
▆ 64 KB on-chip Flash memory for instruction/data and options storage
▆ 16 KB on-chip SRAM
▆ Supports multiple boot modes
The Arm® Cortex®-M0+ processor accesses and debug accesses share the single external interface to external AHB peripheral. The processor accesses take priority over debug accesses. The maximum address range of the Cortex®-M0+ is 4 GB since it has a 32-bit bus address width. Additionally, a pre-defined memory map is provided by the Cortex®-M0+ processor to reduce the software complexity of repeated implementation by different device vendors. However, some regions are used by the Arm® Cortex®-M0+ system peripherals. Refer to the Arm® Cortex®-M0+ Technical Reference Manual for more information. Figure 2 shows the memory map of the HT32F0008 device, including code, SRAM, peripheral, and other pre-defined regions.

▆ Flash protection capability to prevent illegal access
The Flash Memory Controller, FMC, provides all the necessary functions and pre-fetch buffer for the embedded on-chip Flash Memory. Since the access speed of the Flash Memory is slower than the CPU, a wide access interface with a pre-fetch buffer and cache are provided for the Flash Memory in order to reduce the CPU waiting time which will cause CPU instruction execution delays. Flash Memory word program/page erase functions are also provided.

The Basic Function Timer is a simple count-up 32-bit counter designed to measure time intervals and generate a one shot or repetitive interrupts. The BFTM operates in two functional modes, repetitive or one shot mode. In the repetitive mode the BFTM restarts the counter when a compare match event occurs.

▆ Reset event for the system
▆ Programmable watchdog timer window function
▆ Register write protection function
The Watchdog Timer is a hardware timing circuit that can be used to detect system failures due to software malfunctions. It includes a 12-bit count-down counter, a prescaler, a WDT delta value register, WDT operation control circuitry and a WDT protection mechanism. If the software does not reload the counter value before a Watchdog Timer underflow occurs, a reset will be generated when the counter underflows. In addition, a reset is also generated if the software reloads the counter when the counter value is greater than the WDT delta value. This means the counter must be reloaded within a limited timing window using a specific method. The Watchdog Timer counter can be stopped while the processor is in the debug mode. There is a register write protect function which can be enabled to prevent it from changing the Watchdog Timer configuration unexpectedly.

The Real Time Clock, RTC, includes an APB interface, a 24-bit count-up counter, a control register, a prescaler, a compare register and a status register. Most of the RTC circuits are located in the Backup Domain except for the APB interface. The APB interface is located in the VDD15 power domain. Therefore, it is necessary to be isolated from the ISO signal that comes from the power control unit when the VDD15 power domain is powered off, that is when the device enters the PowerDown mode. The RTC counter is used as a wakeup timer to generate a system resume signal from the Power-Down mode.

The I2 C is an internal circuit allowing communication with an external I2 C interface which is an industry standard two line serial interface used for connection to external hardware. These two serial lines are known as a serial data line, SDA, and a serial clock line, SCL. The I2 C module provides three data transfer rates: (1) 100 kHz in the Standard mode, (2) 400 kHz in the Fast mode and (3) 1 MHz in the Fast plus mode. The SCL period generation register is used to setup different kinds of duty cycle implementations for the SCL pulse.
The SDA line which is connected directly to the I2 C bus is a bi-directional data line between the master and slave devices and is used for data transmission and reception. The I2 C also has an arbitration detect function and clock synchronization to prevent situations where more than one master attempts to transmit data to the I2 C bus at the same time.

The Serial Peripheral Interface, SPI, provides an SPI protocol data transmit and receive function in both master and slave mode. The SPI interface uses 4 pins, which are the serial data input and output lines MISO and MOSI, the clock line, SCK, and the slave select line, SEL. One SPI device acts as a master device which controls the data flow using the SEL and SCK signals to indicate the start of data communication and the data sampling rate. To receive a data byte, the streamed data bits are latched on a specific clock edge and stored in the data register or in the RX FIFO. Data transmission is carried out in a similar way but in a reverse sequence. The mode fault detection provides a capability for multi-master applications.ons.

The CRC calculation unit is an error detection technique test algorithm which is used to verify data transmission or storage data correctness. A CRC calculation takes a data stream or a block of data as its input and generates a 16-bit or 32-bit output remainder. Ordinarily, a data stream is suffixed by a CRC code and used as a checksum when being sent or stored. Therefore, the received or restored data stream is calculated by the same generator polynomial as described above. If the new CRC code result does not match the one calculated earlier, then this means that the data stream contains a data error.
